Kindred Spirit

Life overseas is not always easy... life on the road to adoption is not always easy... having a friend to share the journey makes it so much better... and I am so blessed to have found such a person!

I have only "met" my new friend once... (but we meet everyday via aol!!!) we are both Americans living in Australia... we just live hours apart! We are both waiting for our daughters in China... such a hard wait! We were both flight attendants years ago(so funny) .... We are both just a little on the crazy side (good crazy that is)... We both have little ones that are biological and adopted... we both travel the world, following our husbands and their careers... we both get sad... we both get elated... we find something new that we have in common each time we chat....

... and the best thing is we both have a friend to share the journey with... a friend that truly understands! How priceless is a kindred spirit... I am at a loss for words! Thanks so much for you friendship E.W. !!!

NOT in Australia anymore.... but still Just a content wife and mom to 5! I love my family and friends and my favorite things are: the coffee culture in Australia ( I sure do miss it) , Chick fila in the States (now enjoying this a bit TOO frequently) , decorating my house, and shopping for odds and ends! ... and someday soon, I am going to buy a horse! HA!
